Has Marmite really been banned in Denmark?

There was shock and outrage last week when the British media announced that Marmite had been made illegal in Denmark.

Why? Because of the added vitamins it contains which are seen as a threat to public health.

There are lots of campaigns circulating online calling for this ruling to be overturned. People are passionate about the British food, Marmite! Well, as the slogan clearly states, you either love it or hate it - and it seems that lots of people really do love it!

According to the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration, foods with added vitamins need to be approved before they can be marketed in Denmark and no application has been received from Marmite...

Whatever the case, the focus is definitely on Marmite!
